Contemporary Transparency Weaving with Myra Chang Thompson

Transparency weaving is found in Scandinavian countries featuring a light and airy textile with a simple pattern.

They were traditionally used as room dividers, privacy screens for windows or doors, woven to hang in places where light passes to create a decorative lighting effect.

Our workshop begins with a painted linen warp to which a set of pattern threads and a linen binder will be woven. The result is a contemporary transparency suitable for the modern home or office.
